Antoinette Hale was an American painter.

Hale was born in Roanoke, Virginia. She attended Virginia State University where she graduated with a degree in sociology. She became a social worker. She took painting classes in Los Angeles, California at the defunct L & E School of Fine Arts in the 1970s.[1]

She started painting full-time when she retired. Her work has been exhibited at the Harrison Museum of African American Culture, Mary Baldwin University and Virginia Tech.[1]

Curators at the Harrison Museum of African American Culture call Hale "one of the most important artists working in the Roanoke Valley in the late 20th century."[2]
